India is populous but USA is populous as well, and Japan is dense as well. The problem isn't too many people, it's insufficient per-capita wealth/opportunity.

A billion people for a thousand seats is the same problem as a million people with for seat.

Actually there are a lot of business opportunities. Certainly not enough to accommodate the whole population, but then again not everyone is in a position to take advantage of available opportunities.

What is really lacking, is access to information and in many cases people just dont want to pursue said opportunity. Everyone instead wants to do that one thing that made that guy rich.
